The Wisconsin Migration Research Group is a Madison-based forum for individuals interested in the cross-disciplinary study of processes related to migration and transnationalism. It was started by and continues to be led by graduate students and faculty allies. As of early 2009, there were 68 graduate students, faculty, and academic staff from campus. These individuals are mostly affiliated with UW Madison, but the email list reaches members from around the world.
